Tony:

        The bigger issue is that the Form 4.5 is mouse driven in most development environments. This means that the user can enter in any sequence the information into the form. This means that many triggers which assume that you enter field1 then field2 will not apply.

In addition, error cheching/validation of a block or form will be more complex.

        Conversion from 3.0 to 4.5 is just the first of the issues. The application design is different. You may want to study the user interface issues.
